Description of Business

Remitly is a trusted provider of financial services that transcend borders. With a footprint spanning more than 175 countries, Remitly has built one of the world’s leading global money movement platforms, trusted by millions of customers.

Unless otherwise expressly stated or the context otherwise requires, the terms “Remitly” and the “Company” within these notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements refer to Remitly Global, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.
- Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. The year-end data within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP and therefore the information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the historical audited annual consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature considered necessary to state fairly the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income, and cash flows for the interim periods. The interim results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2026, or for any other future annual or interim period.
Principles of Consolidation
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Remitly Global, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Reclassification
The condensed consolidated financial statements and notes have been prepared consistently, with the exception of the reclassification of certain prior year amounts within the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Reclassifications include a change in presentation of certain cash activity related to customer funds assets and liabilities, which is comprised of disbursement prefunding, customer funds receivable, customer liabilities, and trade settlement liability included within the line item ‘Accrued expenses and other current liabilities’ on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Certain components of this activity were reclassified from cash flows from operating activities to cash flows from financing activities, reflected within the line item ‘Net change in customer funds assets and liabilities’ on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. This change resulted in an increase in cash flows from operating activities of $49.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, offset by a corresponding change in cash flows from financing activities. The Company has conformed the prior period Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows to the current period presentation to enhance transparency and provide comparability. These reclassifications did not affect the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income, Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, or Condensed Consolidated Statements of Stockholders’ Equity.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed within the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates and assumptions include, but are not limited to, revenue recognition including the treatment of sales incentive programs, reserves for transaction losses, allowance for credit losses, stock-based compensation expense, the carrying value of operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities, the realizability of deferred tax assets, capitalization of software development costs, goodwill, and intangible assets. The key assumptions applied for the value of the intangible assets include revenue growth rates for a hypothetical market participant, selected discount rates, as well as migration curves for developed technology. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on assumptions that management considers reasonable. Actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions, and these differences could be material to the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially expose the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, disbursement prefunding, restricted cash, and customer funds receivable. The Company maintains cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash balances that may exceed the insured limits by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. In addition, the Company funds its international operations using accounts with institutions in the major countries where its subsidiaries operate. The Company also prefunds amounts that are held by its disbursement partners, which are typically located in India, Mexico, and the Philippines. The Company has not experienced any significant losses on its deposits of cash and cash equivalents, disbursement prefunding, restricted cash, or customer funds receivable in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, no individual customer represented 10% or more of total revenues or customer funds receivable.

- Revenue
The Company’s primary source of revenue is generated from its global money movement product. Revenue is earned from transaction fees charged to customers and the foreign exchange spreads earned between the foreign exchange rate offered to customers and the foreign exchange rate on the Company’s currency purchases. Revenue is recognized, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for services provided, when control of these services is transferred to the Company’s customers, which is the time the funds have been delivered to the intended recipient. The Company accounts for revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which includes the following steps:
(1)identification of the contract with a customer;
(2)identification of the performance obligations in the contract;
(3)determination of the transaction price;
(4)allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and
(5)recognition of revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation.
For the Company’s global money movement product, customers engage the Company to perform one integrated service—collect the customer’s money and deliver funds to the intended recipient in the currency requested. Payment is generally due from the customer upfront upon initiation of a transaction, when the customer simultaneously agrees to the Company’s terms and conditions.
Revenue is derived from each transaction and varies based on the funding method chosen by the customer, the size of the transaction, the currency to be ultimately disbursed, the rate at which the currency was purchased, the disbursement method chosen by the customer, and the country to which the funds are transferred. The Company’s contract with customers can be terminated by the customer without a termination penalty up until the time the funds have been delivered to the intended recipient. Therefore, the Company’s contracts are defined at the transaction level and do not extend beyond the service already provided.
The Company’s global money movement product comprises of a single performance obligation to complete transactions for the Company’s customers. Using compliance and risk assessment tools, the Company performs a transaction risk assessment on individual transactions to determine whether a transaction should be accepted. When the Company accepts a transaction and processes the designated payment method of the customer, the Company becomes obligated to its customer to complete the payment transaction, at which time a receivable is recorded, along with a corresponding customer liability. None of the Company’s contracts contain a significant financing component.
The Company recognizes transaction revenue on a gross basis as it is the principal for fulfilling payment transactions. As the principal to the transaction, the Company controls the service of completing payments for its customers. The Company bears primary responsibility for the fulfillment of the payment service, is the merchant of record, contracts directly with its customers, controls the product specifications, and defines the value proposition of its services. The Company is also responsible for providing customer support. Further, the Company has full discretion over determining the fee charged to its customers, which is independent of the cost it incurs in instances where it may utilize payment processors or other financial institutions to perform services on its behalf. These fees paid to payment processors and other financial institutions are recognized as ‘Transaction expenses’ within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company does not have any capitalized contract acquisition costs.
Sales Incentives
The Company provides sales incentives to customers in a variety of forms, including promotions, discounts, and other sales incentives. Evaluating whether a sales incentive is a payment to a customer requires judgment. Sales incentives determined to be consideration payable to a customer or paid on behalf of a customer are accounted for as reductions to revenue, up to the point where net historical cumulative revenue, at the customer level, is reduced to zero. Those additional incentive costs that would have caused the customer level revenue to be negative are classified as advertising expenses and are included as a component of ‘Marketing expenses’ within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. In addition, referral credits given to a referrer are classified as ‘Marketing expenses,’ as these incentives are paid in exchange for a distinct service.
The following table presents the Company’s sales incentives for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025:
| Three Months Ended September 30, | Nine Months Ended September 30, | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| (in thousands) | 2026 | 2025 | 2026 | 2025 |

| Marketing expenses(1) | 8,191 | 8,225 | 25,564 | 18,958 |
| Total sales incentives | $23,012 | $21,446 | $67,812 | $53,290 |
(1)Sales incentives that are charged to‘Marketing expenses’ are included in advertising expenses as disclosed in Note 2. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.
Revenue by Geography
The following table presents the Company’s revenue disaggregated by primary geographical location for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, attributed to the country in which the sending customer is located:
| Three Months Ended September 30, | Nine Months Ended September 30, | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| (in thousands) | 2026 | 2025 | 2026 | 2025 |
| United States | $348,587 | $279,674 | $983,196 | $789,401 |
| Canada | 40,516 | 41,780 | 126,719 | 122,284 |
| Rest of world | 120,736 | 98,040 | 347,882 | 281,285 |
| Total revenue | $509,839 | $419,494 | $1,457,797 | $1,192,970 |
- Consumer Receivables
Consumer receivables represent outstanding amounts advanced to customers for cross-border payments processed through Remitly Flex. These receivables are interest free and are generally due in full within 30 days of the transaction in order to retain eligibility for future advances, or up to 90 days if customers enroll in a monthly subscription fee program.
The following table presents an aging analysis of the amortized cost of consumer receivables by delinquency status as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025:
| September 30, | December 31, | |
|---|---|---|
| (in thousands) | 2026 | 2025 |
| Current | $21,228 | $25,288 |
| 1 - 30 days past due | 1,051 | 1,932 |
| 31 - 60 days past due | 339 | 1,111 |
| 61 - 90 days past due | 167 | 723 |
| 91+ days past due | 244 | 552 |
| Total amortized cost | $23,029 | $29,606 |
Consumer receivables are charged off when they are over 120 days past due and the Company has no reasonable expectation of recovery. When consumer receivables are charged off, the Company reduces the related allowance for credit losses. While the Company expects collections at that point to be unlikely, the Company may recover amounts from the respective consumers. Any subsequent recoveries following charge-off are credited to ‘General and administrative expenses’ on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations in the period they were recovered.
The allowance for credit losses, charge-offs, and recoveries related to consumer receivables, as well as for other components of customer funds assets, were each not material for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025.

As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the notional value of the Company’s outstanding foreign exchange contracts classified as derivative instruments was $238.8 million and $25.0 million, respectively. The fair values of the related derivative assets and liabilities were not material.

- Net Income Per Common Share
The following table presents the calculation of basic and diluted net income per share attributable to common stockholders for the periods indicated. Basic net income per share is calculated using the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share is calculated using the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding including the dilutive effect of all potential shares of common stock as determined under the treasury stock method. Dilutive common shares primarily include outstanding stock options and unvested restricted stock units (“RSUs”). Certain common stock equivalents, primarily RSUs, were excluded from diluted net income per share because their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan
A new 12-month ESPP offering period commences on March 1 and September 1 of each fiscal year, and the plan includes a rollover feature for the purchase price if the Company's stock price at the end of the purchase period is less than the Company's stock price on the first day of the offering period. If this rollover feature is triggered, a new offering period begins. The rollover feature had an immaterial impact for all periods presented and any incremental stock-based compensation expense is recognized over each new offering period.
The fair value of the ESPP offerings, including those described above, were estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model as of the respective offering dates, using the assumptions below. These assumptions represent the grant-date fair value inputs for new offerings which commenced during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, as well as updated valuation information as of the modification date for any offerings for which a modification occurred during the periods presented herein:
| Nine Months Ended September 30, | ||
|---|---|---|
| 2026 | 2025 | |
| Risk-free interest rates | 3.51% to 4.14% | 3.79% to 4.26% |

| Total | $39,627 | $39,974 | $101,654 | $113,832 |
As of September 30, 2026, the total unamortized compensation cost related to all non-vested equity awards, including RSUs and PSUs, was $277.6 million, which will be amortized over a weighted-average remaining requisite service period of approximately 2.3 years. As of September 30, 2026, the total unrecognized compensation expense related to the ESPP was $2.8 million, which is expected to be amortized over the next 0.9 years.
- Restructuring Initiatives
In the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company began implementing restructuring plans to simplify and scale certain processes, functions, and team capabilities.
Restructuring costs incurred include severance and related termination benefits, and lease exit costs primarily associated with changes to the Company’s leased facilities in Israel and Ireland, including impairments of property and equipment, as the Company evaluates updates to its operations in those locations. These specific restructuring initiatives are expected to be completed by December 31, 2026.
The Company incurred charges of $2.1 million and $17.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, respectively, related to these initiatives. There wereno restructuring costs during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 related to these initiatives.

- Income Taxes
The Company computes its (benefit from) provision for income taxes for interim periods by applying the estimated annual effective tax rate to year-to-date income from recurring operations and adjusting for discrete items arising in that quarter.
The Company’s effective tax rates on pre-tax income were 3.2% and 28.9% for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, and (73.0)% and 24.7% for thenine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The difference between the effective tax rate and the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21.0% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 was primarily the result of the release of the Company’s valuation allowance against its U.S. deferred tax assets. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the difference was primarily the result of foreign income taxed at different rates, changes in the U.S. valuation allowance, non-deductible stock-based compensation, and recognition of a discrete income tax benefit, primarily driven by excess stock-based compensation deductions.
Due to cumulative losses in the U.S. during prior periods, the Company had maintained a full valuation allowance against its U.S. deferred tax assets, including net operating loss carryforwards, capitalized research costs, and tax credits related primarily to research and development. The Company periodically evaluates the realizability of its net deferred tax assets based on all available evidence, both positive and negative.
During the three months ended June 30, 2026, the Company reached a cumulative income position in the United States over the previous three years, which constituted objective and verifiable positive evidence and thus received significant weighting in the Company’s assessment. Additional positive evidence considered by the Company included recent utilization of U.S. tax attribute carryforwards and future forecasts of continued profitability in the U.S.
In completing its assessment, the Company also weighed significant negative evidence, including the limited tenure of recently achieved U.S. profitability, the inherent risk in projecting taxable income over the carryforward periods of existing tax attributes, and variable macroeconomic conditions that may impact the Company’s ability to generate forecasted taxable income. The Company also considered that future tax deductions associated with stock-based compensation depend on the Company’s stock price, which is inherently unpredictable and introduces additional uncertainty into its forecasts of future U.S. taxable income.
Upon considering the weighted impact of all evidence, both positive and negative, the Company concluded that the positive evidence, including the objective three-year cumulative income position, outweighed the negative evidence and that it was more likely than not that its U.S. federal and state deferred tax assets would be realizable. As a result, the Company released its full U.S. valuation allowance and recognized a corresponding $140.6 million discrete tax benefit during the three months ended June 30, 2026. The effect of the valuation allowance release is included as a component of the ‘(Benefit from) provision for income taxes’ within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
When a change in valuation allowance is recognized during an interim period, the change in valuation allowance resulting from current year income is included in the annual effective tax rate and the release of valuation allowance supported by projections of future taxable income is recorded as a discrete provision for (benefit from) income taxes in the interim period. During the three months ended September 30, 2026, the Company further adjusted its valuation allowance release as a result of a change in forecasted income. The Company recognized the related discrete tax expense of $4.1 million during the three months ended September 30, 2026, and discrete tax benefit of $136.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2026. As of September 30, 2026, the Company had deferred tax assets of $149.3 million, which are included within the line item‘Other noncurrent assets, net’ on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, various state jurisdictions, and internationally. As of September 30, 2026, tax years 2012 through 2021, and 2023 through 2025 remain open for examination by taxing authorities. The Company’s 2022 federal tax return was audited by the Internal Revenue Service, with no adjustments.

- Segment Reporting
Segment and Geographic Information
The Company determines operating segments based on how its chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) manages the business, makes operating decisions around the allocation of resources, and evaluates operating performance. The Company’s CODM is its Chief Executive Officer, who reviews the Company’s operating results on a consolidated basis. The Company operates asone operating segment. Based on the information provided to the Company’s CODM, the Company believes that the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of its revenue and how it is affected by economic factors are most appropriately depicted through the Company’s primary geographical locations. Revenues recorded by the Company are substantially all from the Company’s single performance obligation which are earned from similar services for which the nature of associated fees and the related revenue recognition models are substantially the same. Refer to Note 3. Revenue and Note 6. Property and Equipment for information related to the Company’s geographic information for revenue and long-lived assets, respectively.
Segment Income and Performance Measurement
The Company’s CODM is provided the financial performance of the Company'sone operating segment showing net income (loss) as the primary measure of segment profitability. Net income (loss) reflects revenue generated and expenses incurred for the business. The CODM uses this measure to evaluate the operational efficiency and profitability of the Company, to make strategic decisions about capital allocation, and to assess whether the Company is meeting its financial targets. The CODM does not evaluate the performance of itsone operating segment using asset information.
The Company’s CODM is regularly provided results comparing actual performance against budgeted targets and prior periods. This measure aligns with how resources are managed and allocated within the Company’sone operating segment business.
